One of the best musicians to emerge from the Twin Cities, St. Paul appeared in Purple Rain as a teenage wunderkind, playing keys with The Time on hits like "Jungle Love" and "The Bird." He was hand-picked by Prince himself to be the lead singer of The Family (best known for "Nothing Compares 2 U") on Prince's Paisley Park label. In the tradition of Motown's Funk Brothers, St. Paul has assembled the who's who crew of the Minneapolis Sound with St. Paul & The Minneapolis Funk All-stars, showcasing those who wrote, produced, performed, or sung on some of the biggest hits from the heyday of electro funk-rock in the Twin Cities.
The All-stars include*:
Jellybean Johnson - Drummer for The Time and The Family - Purple Raiin
Dr. Fink - Keyboardist for Prince and the Revolution, NPG - Purple Raiin
Jerome Benton - Percussionist -The Time, The Family, Prince - Purple Raiin
